READ MORELast Saturday, we took ourselves down to Art Melbourne – like many of you probably did, if you’re here in the ‘burn. Total artgasm.

This years contestants comprise Rad, Hancock, Reliable, Jack Douglas, Eleven, Katie Houghton-Ward, Jessica Singh and Steve Cross – what a mix of talent! Armed with only
READ MOREWe didn’t put up a Transmissions last week, because, well, there was bugger all! In future if there’s not much on that week, we have a great idea we’ll be putting into practice … just so you get your fix! For this week, without further ado. (Image via Sam Evans) First up is an awesome
READ MORERemembering back some years, I recall when I first became aware of Tom Civils work. I’d heard about a screening on TV of a new documentary, Rash, all about the emergence of a whole bunch of new street artists in Melbourne,. I was eager to check out what was happening over here (at the time
